Chapter 197

“Even so, I’m more into Yolanda’s tune, the climax part is really uplifting!”

“I dig Yolanda’s tune too, but only the climax part.”

Serena stepped off the stage just in time to hear these comments. Her nails dug into her palms, but

she still smiled and nodded at everyone.

Serena had to admit, the climax part of Yolanda’s tune was indeed catchy, and her composing skills

were définitely above hers! But it was a shame that the other parts didn’t perform well, so she ended up

in second place.

Yolanda, hearing that everyone liked her tune, especially the climax part, was thrilled and excited,

feeling like she was the star of the show.

“The first eight winners have already performed their award–winning tunes for everyone, and I believe

you all have a better understanding of their achievements. Now it’s time for the most important part of

today – the award ceremony. Please welcome the famous piano master, Professor Kent, to present the

honorary certificates to the fourth to eighth winners!” The host said.

The audience burst into applause.

Kent buttoned up his suit and presented the honorary certificates to the winners one by one, taking

photos for memories. After they stepped off the stage, the host picked up the microphone and

passionately said, “Next, we invite our Piano Association President, Jasmine, to present the trophies to

the top three winners!” The applause from the audience was even louder, deafening.

The third–place Frida, second–place Yolanda, and first–place Serena each left their seats and walked

gracefully towards the stage.

They were only seventeen or eighteen years old, talented, and good–looking.

On their way, Yolanda waved and greeted everyone while also nodding at Serena, but Serena seemed

not to notice her friendly gesture, didn’t respond, and just waved and smiled at others.

After Jasmine took the stage, she handed the champion trophy to Serena and the third–place trophy to

Frida, then looked at Yolanda with an icy stare. It was as if she was looking at a thief!

The host paused for a moment, then quickly said, “President Jasmine, the second–place winner, you

forgot to present the trophy.”

Yolanda looked a little embarrassed. But with so many people in the audience watching, and the

cameras following her, she smiled politely, “Presidènt Jasmine, I am the second–place winner of this

competition, Yolanda.”

“I know.” Jasmine’s voice was cold, her gaze sharper than before.

When Yolanda mentioned that she was second place, Jasmine itched to expose her lie. Everyone was

a bit puzzled, even the host didn’t know what had happened, feeling that President Jasmine was

looking at Yolanda as if she were an enemy.

He could only hint at the girl holding the trophy next to him with his eyes. The girl smiled and brought

the trophy to Jasmine.

Jasmine remained standing and her gaze was icy.

“You don’t deserve the second–place trophy!” She said.

The whole audience was shocked by this statement!

Even Yolanda’s complexion turned pale in an instant.
